Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Data transfer via snail is faster than ADSL and pigeons

The picture cracked me up....

The system called SNAP (SNAil-based data transfer Protocol), uses biological carriers, and, for the first time, taking advantages of the unique merits of the wheel for data transfer...

System architecture: the system is constructed of a back end - a carriage, Ben-Hur movie style, which is made of a yoke made of light Balsa, and outfitted with two huge wheels - 2 DVD wheels, 4.7 Giga each. The front end, to which the carriage is harnessed consist of a Giant snail (Achatina fulica), known also as Giant African Snail (Africans are known as the world fastest runners ). These giant snail are of the GastroPod family (G-pod. We will reserve this name for transfer of music, and the name: G-mail for transfer of emails by snails SMTP –snail mobile transfer protocol )

Packets transport: Data is transported in 2 packets in parallel, 4.7 Giga each packet.

Results: Calculations that were conducted after the experiment, explicitly proved that in spite of the relatively, very slow, speed of the biological carriers, the Snap system succeeded in transferring data faster than any other conventional technologies, existing today.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Nope. They were too slow to load on this computer. Are they work safe?

And now I have, and I stand corrected.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

yes. dude, it's the BBC.

Spoken like someone who's never seen the birth episode of Human Body.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tommyrot's link about data transfer makes me think of a filk song with the line "When I was a boy every packet was delivered by carrier pidgeon".
